All Creation Waits, Day 15 – Come, All Who Are Thirsty
Week 3 – 3rd Sunday of Advent – Waiting in Joy (Isaiah 55)
Isaiah 55:1
1 Hear, everyone who thirsts;
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without price.
Thoughts
Advent joy begins with an invitation. God doesn’t wait for us to get it all together – the call goes out to the thirsty, the weary, the poor. “Come.” The Living Water welcomes us freely. Joy isn’t something we earn; it’s something we receive. God’s table overflows, and our thirst points us toward the Source of all joy.
Question
What kind of “thirst” – for peace, meaning, or belonging – draws you closer to God this Advent?
Prayer
Lord, draw me to Your living water. Fill me with joy that overflows …
